Fig. 2From: Prognostic potential of pre-partum blood biochemical and immune variables for postpartum mastitis risk in dairy cowsChanges of platelets and white blood cells relative to health in dairy cows with different somatic cell counts (SCC). -∆-, high SCC (SCC ≥ 500,000 cells ml− 1, n = 33); -■-, middle SCC (200,000 cells ≤ SCC < 500,000 cells ml− 1, n = 20); -○-, low SCC (SCC < 200,000 cells ml− 1, n = 23). Lymph, lymphocytes; PMN, polymorphonuclear neutrophils; PLT, platelets; WBC, white blood cells; NLR, neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio; PLR, platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio. Hs = effect of health status; Wk = effect of sampling week; Hs * Wk = interaction effect (Hs × Wk). * Hs (P < 0.05) among three groups; **Hs (P < 0.01) among three groups.
